The one book that sets out shadbala in full — not as rules but as a computation: a single chart carried through all six sources of strength, down to every sub-component and to the total in rupas. The author of Jagannatha Hora refers his readers to it. A recognised text is available.
Proceedings of the ninth International Conference on Oriental Astronomy (ICOA-9, Pune, 15-18 November 2016), edited by Wayne Orchiston, Aniket Sule and Mayank Vahia. Springer, Astrophysics and Space Science Proceedings 54.
Edited by Matthieu Husson, Clemency Montelle and Benno van Dalen; Ptolemaeus Arabus et Latinus, Studies, volume 2. On how numerical tables are edited and analysed — precisely the craft our engine practises, applied to manuscripts instead.
A doctoral thesis, University of Canterbury, 2016. An examination of the Goladhyaya of Nityananda's Siddhantasindhu — a Sanskrit rendering of a Persian zij, and a rare case of two traditions meeting inside a single text.
Springer, Sources and Studies in the History of Mathematics and Physical Sciences. The table-text genre from its origins to the eighteenth century; section 5.5 is given over wholly to the Makaranda, and appendix B.2 collects the parameter sets of all the pakshas.
A catalogue of manuscript tables: descriptions, epochs, parameters, analysis by text. It names Makaranda's epoch outright — 'composed in Saka 1400 = A.D. 1478'. Recognised afresh, because the archive.org text layer had the English book run through a Devanagari model. A recognised text is available.
A paper by K. Rupa, Padmaja Venugopal and S. Balachandra Rao in the Indian Journal of History of Science 49.2 (2014). The authors recomputed Makaranda's corrections directly from its daily-motion tables — and confirmed our four numbers to the last digit.
The astronomical tables of Makaranda, son of Ananda, composed at Benares in 1478 (Saka 1400). The corrections to the planetary revolutions used by JHora come from these tables — and the epoch at which they are frozen turned out to be the epoch of the book itself.
A collection of siddhantic material: one hundred and twenty-six pages on how the positions of the luminaries are computed, not on how they are interpreted. Useful for checking astronomical parameters.
A short treatise on house lordships, yogas and combinations of lords: eighty-six pages in which almost every line is a rule. Checked during our analysis of the raja yogas.
A compendium of natal astrology, 1952 edition, in Devanagari. From the same collection as the other Sanskrit books in this section.
A Sanskrit jyotisha compendium from the jyotisha collection on archive.org. A Devanagari scan without a usable text layer; kept as a primary source for page-by-page checking.
